“Democratic senators came out in droves Wednesday calling for Sen. Al Franken (D-Minn.) to resign following multiple accusations of groping and improper sexual conduct.

The charge was led by women in the Senate, seven of whom came out with successive statements seemingly in coordination calling for Franken to step down.

“While Senator Franken is entitled to have the Ethics Committee conclude its review, I believe it would be better for our country if he sent a clear message that any kind of mistreatment of women in our society isn’t acceptable by stepping aside to let someone else serve,” Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.), the first out with a statement, said in a message posted on Facebook.”*

Young Turk (n), 1. Young progressive or insurgent member of an institution, movement, or political party. 2. A young person who rebels against authority or societal expectations.(American Heritage Dictionary)

Its definitely disappointing. The problem is….democrats and progressives continue to put their people on the chopping block. Then on the other side, people like Trump and Moore are winning despite being deplorable people.

Not saying we shouldn't condemn people like Franken and have them resign. However, we continue to lose people while republicans keep one upping the horrible people they put in office.
